lyrics

another servant for another pleb
when it all comes down you'll understand why

I haven't seen you for a while
I hadn't time

another wasted season
another waste of time
when it all comes down you'll understand why
another pointless genius
for another sacrifice
when it all comes down you'll understand why

I haven't seen you for a while
I hadn't time

hope and prayer
it's so last season
befriend the man
who becomes the reason
a worthless fight
cause God's not so pleasing
let's hope today
becomes more appealing

I haven't seen you for a while
I hadn't time

come this way, (you need to give up)
what's here to stay for (you need to let go)
a corruption of sorts
it's tearing us a part

calm it down (you need to give up)
we'll leave by the side door (you need to let go)
& never return or we face the consequence

I haven't seen you for a while
I hadn't time
